Patch 7.2.5 Survival Guide

Tomb of Sargeras, Legion Patch 7.2.5, goes live June 13th on NA Realms and June 14th on EU realms! The patch is planned to go live 3pm PST on NA servers. Here is Wowhead's survival guide to everything about the patch.

The Auction House Dance Party micro holiday is scheduled for July 22nd; the Auction Houses in Stormwind and Orgrimmar have been converted into dance studios and you can show off your moves.

The Trial of Style Transmog Competition takes place from August 17 - 21st; you have two minutes to create an outfit around a specified theme. You can buy some transmog sets with the competition prize tokens; these resemble Burning Crusade dungeon sets.

Many classes are receiving large changes in Patch 7.2.5 and we've compiled all the class changes from the PTR - talents, abilities, set bonuses and artifact traits. You find all the class changes in our Patch 7.2.5 Class and Artifact Changes post.

Our guide writers have also been hard at work researching updates for their guides, including new artifact paths and updated relic recommendations. Check out their guides for information on ability usage, gear and artifact recommendations, and more. They will be continuing to update them throughout 7.2.5 hotfixes, additional theorycrafting developments, and the opening of the Tomb of Sargeras raid.

Two new legendaries are being added for each specialization: one class shared legendary ring, and one spec specific legendary. The legendary rings are special and will award a specific talent in your talent tree. For example, a Havoc Demon Hunter will receive the First Blood talent with Soul of the Slayer equipped and can also still normally choose a talent in that row.

WarcraftDevs has clarified all new legendaries can drop the week of June 13th, at ilvl 940 (source).

Our class guide writers are also hard at work updating their guides with the latest legendary recommendations! They will be continuing to update and refine their guides over the start of 7.2.5 to account for hotfixes and other variables:

The Chromie Scenario sends you through multiple timeways to defeat Chromie's attackers. As you gain reputation with Chromie by killing mobs in the scenario, you will unlock more powerful abilities for Chromie to help speed up your run and complete more timeways in one run.

Unlike past solo scenarios like Withered Army Training, you do not need to worry about gearing up--your gear is scaled up to 1000 and your player level is increased as well. You can also fly inside this scenario--unusual for instanced content.

There are several rewards:

The title is awarded from the Chromie Homie achievement - reach the "Timelord" friendship level (maximum rank) with Chromie.

To start out, head to see Breanni at the Pet Shop in Dalaran. She will give you a quest to send you off to Westfall to find Marcus "Bagman" Brown who is behind the stable next to the Deadmines entrance. He offers you the quest The Deadmines Strike Back.

Completing the quest for the normal version of the Deadmines Pet Battle Dungeon awards you with a handy portal straight to Deadmines Manapoof Link: Westfall - after you've completed this, you can just speak to Manapoof who hands out next to Breanni in Dalaran for a quick port (this pet is also offering a port to Wailing Caverns (Manapoof Link: Wailing Caverns) as of 7.2.5! You are also awarded the usual Ultimate Battle-Training Stone for completing this as well.

Toys: The PvP Pennants from Prestige finally count as toys. Several toys will be added throughout the course of 7.2.5, including Set of Matches for Midsummer Fire Festival, and Verdant Throwing Sphere for Black Temple Timewalking.

Transmog: Holiday gear is now cosmetic and transmoggable during the related event, like Elegant Dress. Here is a full list of cosmetic items. In addition, Trial of Style rewards are TBC sets while Chromie rewards are bronze recolors of Wrath gear. Finally, Tier 20 armor sets will be collectible starting on June 20th when the raid opens.

Rogues in Legion can make some extra gold, and acquire some battle pets and toys, through a series of new pickpocketing quests.

The questline starts from Wanna Buy a Lamp? via Griftah in your Class Hall. You will learn the ability to loot Coins of Air when you pickpocket Broken Isles mobs, which can be turned in for the following rewards:

We're giving away three Squirky Plushies from the Blizzard Gear Store, a Rocket Chicken, a Spurious Sarcophagus and 50 Wowhead Premium promotional codes good for a full month!

Completing a dungeon will reward 2 pieces of loot as a base.One bonus piece of loot will be earned for completing the dungeon in time.A stacking 40% chance to get an additional piece of loot will be given for each Keystone level above 15.e.g. At level 20, you'll be guaranteed 4 pieces of loot, plus an additional piece if you beat the timer.

So chests will only give 2 pieces of loot for everything under a +15, regardless of time? That super sucks.

Anyway, I'm super excited for the Deadmines Pet Dungeon. I enjoyed WC and now have all the pets you can get from there, stoked to get some from Deadmines next! Even if we have to buy them this time. Instead of RNG and doing who knows how many runs to get them I just need 6 runs to get all of them. :)

Weirdly enough, what I am looking forward to is the shoe shine kit toy. I spent some saturday evenings trying to figure it out, it's about time we are able to get it.

P.S: I can imagine the struggle tho... giant players and toys galore incoming, blocking your access to it :/

So many things to look forward to... hard to choose a single entry...I think I won't go with the Raid for once and pick the Pickpocketing.My Rogue isn't 110 for long and I actually wanted to use her for Lockpicking only... but the whole sneak, steal and stab thing kinda got me.

Looking forward to upgrading all of my heirlooms and starting the alt-leveling grind!
